The work
continues.
Reconstruction Action drives issue advocacy, voter education, and political accountability in service of Black political power.
We are a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization. We run issue campaigns on voting rights, economic equity, and political accountability. We educate voters on where their representatives stand. We apply pressure when they fall short.
The electoral work — endorsing candidates, funding races, running independent expenditures — belongs to The Reconstruction PAC. The research belongs to The Reconstruction Institute. The issue advocacy and organizing belongs to us.
About Reconstruction Action →We track, expose, and fight every voter suppression bill introduced across our target states. When legislatures move against the right to vote, we move against them.
Elected officials who represent Black constituents are accountable to those constituents. We publish their records, amplify their votes, and make inaction visible.
Informed voters are powerful voters. We produce voter guides, issue briefings, and candidate scorecards for every major race in our target states.
We connect individuals to campaigns, coalitions, and community organizations doing the work on the ground.
What We Fight For
Four issue domains. One mandate.
Every attempt to restrict the ballot is an act of political warfare. We fight it with advocacy, litigation support, voter education, and public accountability campaigns.
Black voters deserve elected officials who answer to them. We publish voting records, track broken promises, and make the gap between rhetoric and action impossible to ignore.
Political power without economic policy change does not close the gap. We advocate for the policy conditions that convert Black representation into Black economic progress.

Reconstruction was not finished by observers. It was built by people who organized, advocated, and refused to accept the status quo.
